“One of my earliest food memories is mum making this salad,” says Ukraine-born chef Olia Hercules of the bowlful in front of her, “I’m just mad about it at the moment.” We're in the kitchen she shares with her two sons and food photographer husband, Joe Woodhouse, in London's Forest Gate, and in the bowl is an orchestra of summer garden vegetables, soft herbs and sour cream.

People often ask how we found out that our daughter, Vida, was unwell. I always answer a bit differently, choosing from a few well-rehearsed anecdotes.

To watch Rosie Kellett move around a kitchen is to see her in her natural habitat: she is fluid, she is alert, she is calm. That she is calm is unsurprising, really, because Rosie is used to cooking for much bigger groups than the three of us (with photographer Sophie) around the table today.
